Hello, I'm Allie
West Michigan Photographer
I am a natural light newborn and family photographer based in Holland, Michigan. I am married and have 4 fun (and busy!) kids.
My photography journey started in 2010 when my husband bought me my first DSLR, but my passion for photos started when I was young. Remember slides? Yeah, well my family used to have frequent slide shows of all my dad’s great family pictures. I loved those slide shows. I loved reliving the memories and really understanding my past. Pictures give us that gift. They allow us to remember the moments we often forget.
The best compliment I can receive on my photography is that my photos look natural, pure, and fun. I love capturing relationships—it’s the heart and soul of my photography. My goal is to give you pictures that will not only remind you what you looked like 15 years ago, but also to remind you of the way your child giggled every time you tickled her, the way your kids loved to play together, and the way your newborn baby stole your heart. I want you to remember the feelings.
I hope you enjoy following my photography! I’d love to hear from you, so please give me a little “hello” by dropping an e-mail or facebook/instagram comment.
My approach
I approach family and newborn photography with a deep appreciation for natural light, genuine connection, and the quiet beauty of everyday moments. Rather than posing or perfecting every detail, I gently guide sessions to allow real interactions to unfold—capturing the way you naturally hold, comfort, and love one another. My focus is on preserving authentic relationships: the soft snuggles, playful laughter, and fleeting in-between moments that tell your family’s true story. By working with natural light and a relaxed, unhurried pace, I create images that feel timeless, honest, and deeply personal.
Let’s work together
